I thought the whole point of SVG what to be resolution independent and 
infinitely scalable.  To me the whole idea of a 128x128 pixel SVG image sounds 
wrong.

Ignoring that, using 24x24 instead of 22x22 will reduce the amount of 
artifacts that occur in an image that is designed to rasterize @ 128x128 but 
it won't eliminate them entirely, so some amount of images will have to be 
reworked for smaller sizes anyway, right?
